Chapter 163: Strange

It's almost winter. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe autumn wind blows off the yellow leaves.

All kinds of materials that Du Shen needed had already been prepared, and they were more than enough. Du Shen did not take back the Black Blade Legion, but let them continue to ravage everywhere, both raiding the temple and sweeping away the nobles and nobles.

Dark clouds obscured the sky, autumn rain continued, and the breeze was cold.

Du Shen stayed in the quiet room as always, digesting the pseudo-divine power. Mario's voice suddenly came from the heavy stone door: "Du Shen, open the door, I want to see you!" Mario's voice was filled with anger.

Du Shen frowned slightly, and snapped his fingers to lift the curfew. The heavy stone door slowly moved open, and Mario entered the door in a rage. Behind him, followed by the leaders of the two Black Blade Legions.

"Du Shen," Mario walked to the stone platform and looked up at Du Shen sitting cross-legged above, "Do you know anything about Maury's team?" ”

Du Shen got up and smiled: "What's wrong?" I'm not staying here all the time. Is there any news that I don't know? ”

Mario was furious: "There is a wizard named Mori, and he leads a team of lawlessness. Didn't you warn all wizards to try not to harm innocent civilians? But he was good, ** captive, slaughtered several villages and towns one after another. That's a slaughter of several villages and towns, regardless of the old and the young! ”

Du Shen secretly disliked it: the population density of the Manluo world was already low. Even with airships and teleportation systems now, Du Shen still found it troublesome to collect the Dread Force and pseudo-divine powers. Du Shen originally planned to expand the population of this world, but he didn't expect that his subordinates would harm him so soon.

Du Shen walked down the stone steps and asked Buluo: "Has this matter been investigated clearly?" ”

Bulo stood behind Mario and said ashamedly: "It's our dereliction of duty and poor supervision. The squadron led by Murray totaled 114 people. They did slaughter four villages and two small towns. Just in the last half month. The reasons for their reporting are ridiculous. It is almost certainly motivated by selfish desires and contempt for mortals. ”

"Heh, contempt," Du Shen sneered, "I haven't despised it yet." They take and take and kill at will? ”

Du Shen was unhappy, and muttered to himself: "Because this world is highly hierarchical, there are huge differences in individual strength. Many wizards are inevitably short-sighted. If you punish Maury's team for slaughtering mortals, I'm afraid it will hurt morale. ”

Du Shen thought for a moment, and said calmly: "Isn't Shadow Castle going to be officially stated?" I'm going to watch the ceremony too. Blow, transfer Maury's squadron to Shadowcastle, both to keep order in the ceremony and to keep me safe. ”

Blow answered. Mario exclaimed dissatisfied, "Forget it?" And thou wilt not punish them, but let them enjoy their idleness? ”

Du Shen said with a smile: "I plan to carefully clean up the entire Black Blade Legion and punish them collectively later." Transfer them to Shadowkeep first, and you won't be afraid that they will continue to harm civilians. ”

Mario nodded: "Okay!" In short, if we wizards want to gain a foothold and grow rapidly, we can't treat civilians as mustard. I'll go back first. ”

Mario and another Blackebon leader leaves. Du Shen left Buluo alone: "Buluo, you tell me honestly." Are you confused about the future? I have made you incessantly raid the temple and the nobility, but never promise future benefits. ”

Bulow hurriedly knelt down on one knee: "My lord, there is nothing confusing. As long as it is an adult's order, we will faithfully carry it out and be happy to carry it out. ”

Du Shen shook his head: "If only everyone were like you!" A lot of people, very ambitious. They follow me only for the advantage, either greater power or status and power. Some people even want me to rule the world, so that they can be divided into kings and do whatever they want. ”

A little sweat oozes from Bloo's back. As the head of the gendarmerie overseeing the Black Blade Legion, Blow certainly knows something about the wizard's mental state. Blow knew that the situation described by Du Shen was real. The situation of Morry's team is probably caused by Du Shen's failure to satisfy the greed of Morry and others.

Buluo was solemn, revealing a little hideousness: "People with different intentions deserve to die!" Subordinates will ......"

Du Shen waved his hand and interrupted: "I believe in the loyalty of everyone. However, greed and loyalty are often not in conflict. Bloo, you secretly touch the bottom. Anyone like Maury who is evildoer, or who is particularly ambitious, is sent to the Shadow Keep to prepare for the ceremony. ”

Bloo was inexplicable and happily responded: "The subordinates obey the order." ”

Time flowed calmly, and more than ten days later in the blink of an eye.

Mario found Du Shen alone: "Why don't you let me go to Shadow Keep?" The Wizard's Realm was officially proclaimed outward. This is a once-in-a-lifetime event, so why didn't you let me go to witness it? ”

Du Shen smiled: "Your research progress, can you catch up?" You've done all the deductions about Heru? ”

Mario gently tugged at his white beard and complained unhappily: "You don't give me real things, it's just a deduction every day, how useful can it be?" ”

Du Shen comforted: "Don't worry, Heru will be able to succeed soon." ”

Mario stroked his beard: "Isn't it, what do you think will happen at this ceremony?" That's why you won't let me go? ”

Du Shen chuckled: "What can happen?" You want more! ”

Mario smirked to himself: "I'm not stupid either. I heard, you've been shoving a lot of thorn heads into Shadowkeep lately? I guess you're trying to kill someone with a knife, right? ”

"What nonsense," Du Shen reprimanded unhappily, "Good ceremony, what kind of murder." ”

Mario said seriously, "You just tell me the truth." Is this ceremony dangerous? As long as you nod your head, I won't go. If not, even if you don't take me. I'll find a way to get there myself. ”

Du Shen looked at Mario quietly.

Mario whispered, "I'm not a threat. You don't want me to die at the ceremony, no one will give you a transformation of Heru, right? ”

"You won," Du Shen nodded, "You have to keep it a secret, and you can't let anyone know." Including Teressa! ”

Mario was stunned for a moment, as if remembering: "Teresa? Do you suspect Teresa will harm you? Because of that Jaeger Blade from last time? By the way, you haven't told me yet. Why did you ask me to deliberately lie to Teresa last time? ”

"How can it be called a lie," Du Shen disagreed, "Do you know the specific effect of the Jaeger Blade?" Since you don't know, how can you be sure that what I told you is false. ”

Mario said angrily: "Anyway, be careful yourself, don't be self-defeating, and end up reaping the consequences!" And Teresa, you'd better keep her safe. I said, since I know it's dangerous. Why can't you tell Teressa? With the cooperation of Shadow Keep, it will be easier for you to act, right? ”

Du Shen shook his head: "You don't understand." I'm running out of time, and I have to try to increase my chances of success. There is only one chance to get Heru! ”

Not long after Mario left, Blow came in and reported, "My lord, we have an urgent message. In a few days, the temple will once again send people into the Secret Realm of Time. It is said that more than 10,000 people will enter this time. My lord, according to the increasing survival rate of the temple in the previous few times, I am afraid that we cannot ignore it this time. ”

Du Shen nodded: "Last time, there were 3,000 people who went in, and more than 700 people came out alive." You really have to be careful this time. Let the airship go first! ”

Bulow nodded, and said, "My lord, we have learned of a mountainous area, which is likely to be Heru's hideout. It is said that people with wings have suddenly appeared and disappeared in the sky. ”

Du Shen suddenly laughed: "What a coincidence that these two pieces of news came!" I had to scatter my forces. The temple was really cautious this time. ”

Du Shen groaned a little and sent people to search the mountainous area.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was almost the day when the founding ceremony of Shadowfort was held. The day before the ceremony, Du Shen passed through the Tide Gate and teleported directly to the Shadow Castle. According to the results of the deliberations of Teresa and others, the capital of the wizarding kingdom is called Shadow Castle. The external organizational title of Teresa and others was changed to the Wizarding Alliance.

Walking out of the Tide Gate, Du Shen only saw the open wilderness. There were no houses nearby, only a few figures waiting. Du Shen secretly drove Nai He Zhu to collect the Force to estimate the condition.

The surrounding Force is not abundant, and it is far away from Du Shen. Du Shen was slightly relieved, and walked to Megan, who was in charge of greeting her, with a smile: "Long time no see." The ceremony went well, didn't you? ”

Meghan briefly greeted and explained: "Your Highness needs to entertain the representatives of the temple, and she will come to meet you later." We've arranged for you to stay overnight in a village near Shadowkeep so you don't bump into the Templars. If you're not sure, you can also find a random spot to camp. ”

"Lead the way." Du Shen asked a few of his subordinates to stay behind to collect the Tide Gate. He led most of the people and followed Megan to the village where he was staying overnight.

The village is not far away, just four or five kilometers away. The village is three or four kilometers away from Shadowkeep. The residents of the village have long been evacuated. Nowadays, only Du Shen and others move in to ensure safety.

The area of the village is relatively small, with only dozens of large and small wooden houses. arranged Du Shen and other more than 20 people to have a surplus.

Du Shen settled down, stayed alone in the room, and continued to use the Nai He Zhu to scout the surrounding environment. However, the beads can only roughly show the density of the Force. Du Shen secretly estimated that the distribution of the population, combined with the information obtained earlier, determined that the distribution of the population was not too abnormal.

In other words, even if there was an ambush in the temple, the number of people could not be too large. It must be known that in the Shadow Keep, there are also men from the Black Blade Legion who act as security teams. If they find something abnormal, they will definitely report it to Du Shen.

Du Shen couldn't help but be curious: "How will the temple ambush itself this time?" ”
